A GREAT LIFE GONE OUT.
On last Saturday William T. Sher¬
man, one of the greatest Union
generals of the civil war, died at
bis home in New Yoik city.
Though a great solaier, and
standing next to Grant in the mil¬
itary giory won on battle field, his
record is one that the south will
never admire. But as we stand
within the shadow of the death an¬
gel’s wing, and catch a message
from the sun-kissed hills of
of the better land, we remem-
member only what wae brave in the
genera), tender and loveable in the
man, and would lay a loyal tribute
of love and tears upon the beir of
the Union’s dead soldier, and pray
that at the great tribunal beyond
the silent nver, mercy and love may
be meted out alike to the blue and
gray.
Watch Dog of The Treasu-
rv.
This is a period of economical ad¬
ministration of affairs tn this country.
There are a great many self constitut¬
ed watch dogs of the treasuiy iu our
midst. This is right in one sense.
Any man who pays tax much or little
has a right to know what becomes of
the money, and see that the financial
affairs of the county aie economically
administered. The large or small
amount of money paid has nothing to
do with it. The man who pays tax
on SI.000 bears as heavy a burden
relatively as the man who pays on
$100,000. The more property a man
owns, the greater are the benefits he
derives from good roads, bridges
public buildings etc.
The “watch dogs of the treasury”
business of this county has been
carried to an excess and has teriou»ly
hampered the public auorthorities in
the proper discharge of their duties.
The watch dogs are for the most part
very short sighted and narrow mind¬
ed and breadth men. They of lack that the distingusihe* liberality
mind
between niggardly stinginess and
wise econemy. wv/mu While thsy enough maybe to
....r.) oar*. IUUU
strike terror to the hearts of county
authorities, and the effect is some¬
thing like the deep bay of the blood¬
hound upon the escaped and fleeing
Our rivers will continue to flow in
their present channels for thousands
of years to come. The time may be
when court houses and jails will no
longer be needed, but that time is in
the dim and far future. When we
build, we should build for the future
as well as the present.
The county authorities should be
snre that the bridges across the im*>
port ant streams are properly located
and then build so substantially that
they will last for generations. We
are of the opinion that there bas been
money enough epent on some of the
bridges since the war, to very nearly
cover the expense of au iron bridge
that would have lasted seventy-five
or a hundred years. Let our county
authorities realize that while the
watch dogs are noisy they are not
dangerous, and then we will have
more substantial improvements.
Fighting The Alliance Paper*
Among those who were present at
the meeting at the executive man¬
sion and who are making a fight on
the alliance organ run by Harry
Brown and Larry Gantt, were:
Dr. Gibson and Tom Olive, of
Oglethorpe, Paul Trammell, Sena¬
tor Todd, Col. George Jones, Rep¬
resentative Reid, of Putnam, Col.
Parks, of Macon, J. D. Smith, of
Dublin, Editor Gunn, of Cuthbert,
Beck, Secretary Burke, ex-State Lecturer
A. G. Whidby and otherr
It seems that these gentlemen,
together with many others are of
the opinion that the alliance oaper
is being used in the interest of the
leaders.
Many months ago we denounced
Macune, Livingston, Brown Gantt
and all the big bosses. We told the
farmers that they were being made
the tool of demagogues and many
other things they ought to have
heeded. For our fearlesness and
candor they boycotted us and tried
to break np our business. Thaquea-
iton now arises, what are the little
bosses in this county going to do
with that stainless man, W, J,
Kerthen, who has risen up to de-
n <nnce tie corruption* of the Alli-
? Thank heaven that men
* u place and power are arming
hemselvas to fight the big and little
JACK THE RIPPER
AT WORK.
Whitechapel district of London.
Sometimes they follow swiftly on the
hsels of each other, and again there
are long intervale. There are a
number of remarkable things con-
SSSSws
um|pmoD . The instrument used
is a knife, and all the bodies hare
been fearfully ai d wantonly hacked
and mutilated,
The victims have all been women
of the abandoned class, and no motive
for the murders has ever been found.
No effort has been made at robbery
or plunder. In fact the
victims have but little of the worlds
goods, and that little has never been
disturbed.
The murders have freequently been
committed on the streets, w hen the
police and many other persons ware
in the near vicinity. The bodies
are found while ’still warm and the
blood streaming from the wounds,
buv no track or trace of the murderer
has ever been discovered,
The latest horror oct-urrd at 3
o’clock on last Friday mornirg. An
officer stumbled over t’m body of a
woman in the middle ot the street.
She was still alive, the Wood spurt-
ing from her wounds, her l’pa moved
as the officer kneelt over her but she
could not articulate. Her throat was
cut from ear to ear. The usual
mutilation w -s interrupted by the
approach of the officer. Hundreds
of people aud many officers were^ in
the surrounding streets. The officer
heard retreating foot steps and gave
the alarm- The streets weie imme¬
diately filled with officers and citi-
zens wbo were on the alert, hut the
muiderer was not found.
PROSPECTS FOR THE YEAR.
Cotton is down and not likely to
go up l>ef ore August if at all. W hen
the crop of the present year indications begins
to come in sight, if the
point to a short crop, there will prob¬
ably be a slight advance in the price.
If there is promise of a good The ci op
there will be no advance* very
large crop, the poor quality, selling, the all indi¬ price
at which futures are
cate little or no advance.* The out¬
look for the next eight months is not
good. A largo percent of the pro¬
ducers will have to buy heavily on
orable last years accop rts settled, is unfav¬
to the merchants man who has will to hare buy on
credit. The to
provide for emergencies and take
care of themselves.
Of coarse we know almost nothing
of the cotton trade, audj only receiv¬
ing tbo opinions of those who are in
aud a position wko to know nothing something to of by it,
have gam
others.
Now* the question is, what is is right? the
remedy if our con jecture relief
We think the greatest can be
obtained by sowing a large crop of
oats, by planting largely such hay
crops as come cattail millet, on early. sorghum Among
these are rye,
and tcocinte. We heaxd one of the
best farmers m the state say that rye
cut in the boot and well cured, will
alone keep stock in good condition
for work.
Plant largely of sweet and insh
potatoes and p'ant early. Raise as
many t hickens and eggs as the fami¬
ly can consume. Do all these things
and practice rigid econemy nnd the
sky will brighten as the summer
advances.
Thos. P. Jaynes, who was the first
gia, Agricultural Commissioner of Geor¬
phlet compiled the *‘hog” a very whi interesting pam¬
on e he was in
office. lie made the figures show’
that one d<Har expended i » the pro¬
duction of chufas foi fattening hogs,
is equal to nine expend*, d iu raising
com for the same purpose. Will no¬
in body chufai try an this experiment with m a- re
year ? They can be
had at almost any of the seed houses.
Admiral David D. Porter died
suddenly of heart d:sca»e pn the
morning of the 13th at his home in
Washington D. C. He was 78 years
old and the highest officer in the
navy.
The Fulton county alliance] re¬
quests the snb-alliance of the state to
be slow in taking m the fight among
the leaden. They say wait and see
what is in it.
Leading democrats are of the
opinion that Mr. Clevelands late
utterances opposing the free coinage
of silver, blasts his prospects an a
presidentai candidate in 1892.
Corn is selling in Carnesviile for a
dollar a bushel cash, and we suppose
it is as cheap as it can be sold. Cot¬

NITA PREACHER.
Stephen Girard, the founder of
Coll.g. la PhiUdtlpi., h.t-
I teachers, and by terms of the
donation to endow and build the
coll' ge, they are exclude} from the
grounds and building. The follow-
following incident occurred at the
gate recently
A naval officer who viaited the
city went to the college and asked to
be admitted- He was dressed in
black clothes, wore a white tie and
had his face smoothly shaven, wh:cb
all together gave him the appear¬
ance of being a parson, aud the
guard politely informed him that
he could not enter.
“Why not?”he asked indignant-
l T-
‘‘Because you’re a clergyman-”
“The -——1 am” was the sharp
reply, and without further exchange
of words the gates were thrown
open aud one of the best fellows
in the navy passed in.
A SPELLING BEE.
There was a spelling bee at the
academy on Friday evening, the
small boys having challenged the
large ones for a match* Both classes
were large but the little boys were
in the majority. At the conclusion
six of the large and seven of the small
boys were on the Door. Roth classes
spelled weil and for distinctness and
clear pronunciation of each letier
and syllable, we have never heard
them surpassed.
AMONG OUR ADVERTISERS.
This is an off month for advertising,
but next monln our apace will be crowd¬
ed, and the merchants who want good
positions would do well to send in their
f ivors early.
It ia said that Manley Bios, do twite
the business of any other firm in town.
They advertise extensively. Moral—it
pays to advertise in a newspaper t’n.t
has a large circulation.
Why is it that l.iwy, rs and doctors are
mote ready to udvuti.-e than other
c a *a. s of ptople ? Is it because they
arc more sensible ?
We have heard tint D. A, B iker, of
Royston, sells more guano and sells it
cheaper, than all the other firms in
Franklin county, and he will sell en
saj&e __-x:/n* I/O DUUgUl VUO
way at any alliance store in north
Georgia. Mr. Baker has always adver¬
tised extensively.

in Carnesviile and he is going to suc¬
ceed. He dropped injto Tint Tribune
office one day last week, and bought

MORROWS BRIDGE AND
ROAD BEYOND
The publio is much incor.venienccd
from the impassable c>i.dit‘.on of tho
bridges across Broad river on the
road from Carnesviile to Marlin. We
understand however that it will soon
be repaired. A very slight swell in
the river covers the road in water on
the far side from Carnesviile for a
long distance, and while the road v>
safe if stock or vehicles keep on the
right track, it would be very danger¬
ous to get off the road bed on either
side and especially on the upper side.
Stakes should be set along on both
sides of the road bed to enable traveler
to keep on it. The county would
probably be chargeable for any acci¬
dent that might occur, and it is good
econemy to pat the road in a safe
condition.
